This week we talk about the Mego One Million BC line and the series of awesome “Prehistoric Animals” that were created for the line. These (mostly dinosaurs) creatures are actually some of the hardest to find items produced by Mego and well, they’re a lot of fun.

For more information, please visit the Mego Museum One Million BC Gallery:

A new episode of “Mego Museum Mint off Card”, where we de-card a new Retro Figure and let you explore what’s inside.

Our subject this week is the new 14 inch Flash by Mego Corp, available at Target stores right now!

Tell us what you think of the Mego DC Comics line now that wave three has hit, what Star Trek aliens would you like Mego to explore next?

It’s an abundance, soon Norm Peterson will be captured by my Apes dolls. Bela Lugosi will join my mad monsters and Tootie from the facts of life will….I have no idea what I’d do with that doll.

It’s just too big to deal with, go to the Megomuseum.com for all the info but Mego is back and set up at booth 830 at SDCC today, NECA has Golden Girls and well, this is on top of all the wonderful stuff Figures Toy Company puts out.

If anybody complains, it’s like moaning at a buffet that there is nothing to eat. Sure, I don’t like everything presented but a) nobody has a gun to my head forcing me to buy it and b) the world doesn’t revolve around me and my tastes, if it did, using “LOL” in written communication would result in a caning.

Enjoy this, take it in, it’s amazing. It’s just the beginning, I hear wave two is on the water. Exciting times. Let’s blow it up and take some retail space away from Funko Pops.

We kick it off with a fun one, we open up a boxed Mego Super Softies Batman figure from 1974 and find out what he has to say! Spoilers: It seems to be all related to crime in Gotham city.

Check out our Mego playlist for MegoMuseum short films, restored Mego commercials, unboxings of new Mego figures and live feeds from the annual Mego Meet convention: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ktLYE…

Famous 1970s toy maker Mego had them all and made for a generation of happy childhoods, each year the company is celebrated with this special convention.

Marty Abrams President of Mego (seen here on the Netflix series “The Toys That Made us”) is the Special Guest at MegoMeet

Special Guest is Mego President Martin Abrams, who was recently featured in several episodes of Netflix’s hit series “The Toys that Made us”. Abrams will be giving a special panel outlining his plans for the newly revived Mego Corporation.

Attendees can expect a dealers room packed with vintage toys from the 1960s to modern day, a special appearance by the 1960s Batmobile, a customs contest for children, door prizes, informational panel sessions and an auction of custom crafted Mego figures with proceeds going towards the Mego Museum website.

About Mego Meet: Mego Meet is an annual, not for profit, event and toy show celebrating its 14th year. It is a chance for collectors across the country to meet in person, buy and sell items and feel a sense of community. This is its first year in Ohio.

Mego Meet takes place this Saturday at Courtyard Columbus West (2350 Westbelt Dr) from 10am to 4pm.

Mego Meet 2018 will be held June 1st – 2nd in Columbus, Ohio at the Courtyard by Marriott Columbus West. This will be our fourteenth year, and I am pleased to announce that we FINALLY have found a facility that works for us and can hold all of us in one large room. The hotel is at 2350 Westbelt Dr, Columbus, OH 43228, USA

Registration is open now – Meet admission is still only $25 and still includes family; tables remain an additional $40.

This epic display of Mego Customs by long time creator Austin Hough was on display at this past weekend’s Mego Meet convention in Skokie IL. It’s worth noting for it’s breadth but also how damned tidy it is. I’ve never displayed anything this nicely ever.

The Mego Museum is back to making short toy documentary pieces narrated by Jason Lenzi (co-host of Pod Stallions) and written by the Museum staff. You can see all their output on this special play list.

Still working on resurrecting Megolike.com (although the facebook page is still up and running) in the meantime, here’s another line of modern figures that rocked out world. Slightly taller (at ten inches but then Mego made a few of those too) the Medicom RAH figures were gorgeous and flipping pricey back in the day. Now? I’m picking them up for $20 a piece. Above is Riderman from the Kamen Rider television series. More after the jump!

Yeah so Megolike.com has been missing for a while and while they try and salvage it (the domain remains in good hands) I thought I’d post some photos from there to kind of tide things over. Here are some more recent figures by Cast-A-Way toys, the boys made nice stuff, had a strong following and got screwed over royally by an unscrupulous third party who essentially stole their molds.
If you have some of the stuff I don’t email me and I’ll add it to this page.

Achmed was the Phantom’s nemesis (he doesn’t exactly have a Batman’s rogue gallery does he?)

From Issue 25, September 1999 (still credited to the ToyFare Staff) we have “Megoville Squares” when they could still riff on the DC characters a little. I guess this mail away Lady Death offer has probably expired?

Been late to the game but the Mego Museum has the scoop on the New Teen Titans Cyborg and Nightwing. While the praise is pretty unanimous for Cyborg, fans are mixed on the open mouth look of Nightwing. Put me in the “Like” camp on that one but to each their own.
